AL: Censorship Watch, Nov. 2 Next Steps: Building a competitive advantage Brian Mathews writes: “When Susan Nutter (right) took over the leadership role at North Carolina State University Libraries in Raleigh, it wasn’t a very inspiring organization. A study found it to be the academic library least able to meet its mission in the state; as a result, faculty were upset, and then they did something about it. In 1996 the faculty senate voted unanimously to use a portion of tuition increases to improve the libraries rather than to raise their own salaries. This was the spark that Nutter needed.”...

These days, what you know is almost less important than what you can find out. And finding out today requires a set of skills that are very different from what most libraries focus on. In addition to academic sources, a huge wealth of content is being produced by people every day in knowledgebases like Wikipedia, review sites like Trip Advisor, and in blogs.

  • Washington Black by Esi Edugyan
    Washington Black by Esi Edugyan Unexpectedly chosen to be a family manservant, an 11-year-old Barbados sugar plantation slave is initiated into a world of technology and dignity before a devastating betrayal propels him throughout the world in search of his true self. Why you'll like it: Historical fiction. Authentic. Lyrical. Richly detailed. About the Author: Esi Edugyan is author of the novels The Second Life of Samuel Tyne and Half-Blood Blues, which won the Scotiabank Giller Prize and was a finalist for the Man Booker Prize, the Governor General's Literary Award, the Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize and the Orange Prize. She lives in Victoria, British Columbia. Questions for Discussion 1. Big Kit tells Washington that “if you dead, you wake up again in your homeland. You wake up free.” How does this line resonate at the end of the book, in the final moments as Wash asks about Dahmoey and looks out into the horizon? 2. Why do you think Big Kit didn’t tell Wash that she was his mother? Do you think he would have responded to Titch’s offer differently had he known? How might his life have been different? 3. Another secret kept in the novel is when Philip delays giving Titch the news of his father’s death – which turns out not to be true. How does this lie compare to Big Kit’s? How is Titch’s response different from Wash’s? 4. Wash describes his scar from the explosion with the Cloud Cutter as “the utter destruction [that] his act had now wrought upon my life.” Discuss the kinds of scar the characters sustain in the novel, both visible and invisible? 5.

Back then, Madhubuti was a young, published poet who wasn't in a gang, just eager to participate in Brooks' workshop. "In the early days, my work was rough because I was rough," said Madhubuti, the founder and president of Third World Press. "I came from the streets of the West Side of Chicago and didn't take criticism lightly. We had blow ups and the last one was so difficult that we didn't speak for a couple of weeks." But he and Brooks sat down over a cup of coffee and made amends. "From that point on, I became her cultural son," he said.
